CASE STUDY -Flipkart \u2013 Walmart<\/p>\n
Flipkart is the leading e-commerce portal in India followed by Amazon India. <\/p>\n
Recently there was a deal between flipkart and Walmart which happened to <\/p>\n
be the biggest eCommerce deal in Indian history in fact world\u2019s largest <\/p>\n
eCommerce deal.<\/p>\n
Amazon global is a leading e-commerce portal and Walmart wants to <\/p>\n
compete against it online and in fact wants to stay ahead of Amazon, hence it <\/p>\n
considered few points before taking this decision.<\/p>\n
India is the only place Walmart could look at to fulfill its dream after China <\/p>\n
because the scope of development in India is more than any country for its <\/p>\n
size and growth rate. The customer base for Flipkart is more than Amazon<\/p>\n
India and Flipkart is growing rapidly every year and for fiscal year ending <\/p>\n
2018. Bansals\u2019 approach towards innovation, scope of development and <\/p>\n
management skills has impressed Mc Millan (President and CEO of <\/p>\n
Walmart) to think further on the acquisition \u2013 though Flipkart is nowhere <\/p>\n
close to profits.<\/p>\n
Prior to this (flipkart acquisition) Walmart has already tried to enter <\/p>\n
eCommerce once in past by acquiring Yihaodian a Chinese online grocery <\/p>\n
marketplace in 2011 which did not work for them, hence they sold it to <\/p>\n
Alibaba\u2019s rival JD.com in 2016.<\/p>\n
Apart from the investment, Flipkart received $2bn additionally for it\u2019s vision <\/p>\n
to accelerate growth directly benefiting its customers. Flipkart\u2019s own supply <\/p>\n
chain arm eKart serves approximately more than 800 cities, delivering 5 lakh <\/p>\n
products in an average daily. With this deal, Walmart will bring in grocery <\/p>\n
and merchandise supply-chain knowledge and financial strength, and Flipkart <\/p>\n
will make the most of the merger to grow into a listable (part of the vision) <\/p>\n
giant quickly. Walmart\u2019s main rival Amazon India is leaving no stone <\/p>\n
unturned when it comes to adoption of newer technology. The company is <\/p>\n
fast increasing the adoption of ML to cut product returns, improve the speed <\/p>\n
and accuracy of product deliveries. Similarly, Flipkart has also announced to <\/p>\n
push its effort to put ML and AI at the core of its business.<\/p>\n
Walmart Labs is mostly looking for acqui-hires and niche tech-product <\/p>\n
startups. Acqui-hiring refers to the practice of buying a company in a cut_xFFFE_price deal, primarily for \u201chiring\u201d the company\u2019s founders and key employees.<\/p>\n
Walmart Labs is currently hiring engineers with expertise on machine <\/p>\n
learning (ML), merchandise, supply chain, data science, product managers <\/p>\n
and cloud experts.<\/p>\n
Online marketplace eBay has decided to end its strategic partnership <\/p>\n
with Flipkart and relaunch eBay India with a differentiated offering to focus <\/p>\n
on cross-border trade. Flipkart had bought eBay India operations last year.<\/p>\n
Flipkart had said during its acquisition of eBay.in that the platform would be <\/p>\n
leveraged for cross-border trade, a move designed to give Flipkart\u2019s vendors <\/p>\n
access to eBay\u2019s global customers and Flipkart\u2019s customers access to eBay\u2019s <\/p>\n
global inventory of products.<\/p>\n
Questions<\/p>\n
1.Why has Walmart invested in flipkart?<\/p>\n
2.What is the advantage for Flipkart due to acquisition of Wallmart?<\/p>\n
3. Walmart looks to Make Tech Acquisition In India. Discuss.<\/p>\n
4.Did eBay cuts ties with Flipkart after Walmart deal?<\/p>\n
